"Braving bad weather and a long bus ride, volunteers fan out through a swing state's suburbs, knocking on thousands of doors to talk to voters – and get a surprise visit from Howard Dean."

SNIP..."After a largely technical presentation by the LCV's warm and frenetic state director, Susan Gobreski, the day's "secret guest speaker," was introduced. Cheers, whistles, and a lengthy standing ovation followed the entrance of the grassroots hero and former Democratic presidential contender, Howard Dean. The applause took more than a minute to subside, as Dean, a bit embarassed, but clearly lifted by the gesture, addressed the audience of approximately 200: "This election is not about swing voters, it's about getting out the vote," he said, pointing out that if we "raise voting by single women 10%, Kerry goes to the White House."

Dean followed up with some red-meat crowd pleasers, bringing the audience to a roar: "George W. Bush is the most incompetent president since Warren Harding," he went on, "but he's even more dangerous because he's an activist incompetent."

The crowd went wild, Dean was clearly hitting his stride. "There's not much I don't like about not being the nominee, but saying what I damn well please is one of 'em!"

2. That's our Howard!

I got this feeling that he is going to be more and more actively involved, as we get closer and closer to election day...
